Today's theme was a little tough for me...I couldn't wrap my mind around photos that depicted this emotion, but I did my best...
I haven't seen my Mom in a few years, this is her blowing us kisses when we dropped her off at the Orlando Airport after our last visit - missing my Mom makes me sad...
I had hubby pull over, on a trip to N.C. several years ago, so I could take a photo of this smashed in old home. It's sad to think that this was once someones loved and cared for home, and now it sits there all alone with no kids runnin' around, no laundry blowin' in the breeze, no chickens cluckin' in the yard, just sad and lonely...
It's pretty sad that this is what "Camping" is today...OK, OK, I confess, I HAVE a small camper, but at least I don't have a satellite dish!!!! LOL
This is my Grandaddy, he turned 96 this past June. It makes me sad that he has lived 96 full, eventful, exciting years, raised 6 kids and been Grandaddy to over 20 grandkids, however he's unable to remember hardly any of it...but, he still remembers his "Quipie Doll" who died over 15 years ago, and he remembers that she was the most beautiful woman he ever saw.
Have a blessed day!

The aging of our minds and the forgetting is so sad -- tho sometimes mercifully so
ReplyDeleteWhat a great post. I loved all your photos. (I don't have a camper or a sat dish, though!). And your grandpa seems like such a wonderful man.
ReplyDeleteI did Photo Hunters today, too. I hope you get a chance to visit and post your link. It would make me *happy*!

i really like the photo of the collapsed house. It reminds me of all the houses and barns I see like that driving through north carolina when I visit my extended family, and really the end of a certain way of life. Thanks for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteThe photos of your Mom and Granddaddy have such a sweet sadness about them. But, that camping picture is just plain "SAD"!
ReplyDeleteOh, you had a brilliant post today for the "sad" theme! I had a tough time with the theme this week also. Thanks for visiting mine!
ReplyDeleteThose are some great photos for this theme. Happy weekend and thanks for dropping my mine. It's nice to find a fellow Florida blogger.
ReplyDeletewow! those are just very touching lines and description to very wonderful shots! more power!
ReplyDeleteI think you did a great job with the theme. Very sweet pictures (OK - the satellite dish was not "sweet").
ReplyDeleteThat sad seeing people growing very old but it's a blessing for me seeing them around like my Mom who is now 85 she had sharp memory but very lean figure I wish her long more years to stay with us..
ReplyDeletegreat entry for this week's theme. I like them all especially the first one. I live thousands of miles away from my mum & I miss her so much.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week ahead.
I tried to comment sooner, but my connection has been even slower than the usual dial-up crawl. >:\
ReplyDeleteThis was a tough theme for everyone. Your first pic made me sad for totally different reasons. 8-} I also included some old buildings. I wish I could rescue all those old places.
Have a JESUS-filled day! ^i^
Great photos... thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteKathy....these are great shots, ALL! Thank you for sharing more than a photo..for filling in the blanks for everyone! It made your contribution that much more interesting.
